San Francisco Beer Week starts tomorrow and I hope to survive it again.

Evidently Russian River produced double the amount of Pliny the Younger, so I expect there to be secrete tappings all over town.

They are a decent taproom away from making their current location successful and I think a move to the boonies would doom them. They need to copy ABW and the smaller guys in the are need to band together to (better) promote brewery crawls.

I’ve has a couple that worked, but yeah, it’s a trend that can die anytime.


They are either great or they suck. The great ones are just few and far between.

Enjoyed some beers at Great Heights tonight. Feel weird introducing myself as from the internet so I just keep my mouth shut.29eded7fddbfd843f0e6558c84cb86ac.jpg


Just say you are Vic and ask what time the Cholas show up.

I heard that Adelbert's has limited time left


Meh beers with terrible branding isn’t a recipe for success. If most of your beer is forgettable, at least have good branding to keep you going like ABW.

Wait, are you saying that most of abw beers are forgettable?

Yep. I like Sputnik but don’t like anything else from there. I’ve tried plenty and have never wanted a second round of anything.

Pinthouse and Zilker are my go to’s.

Ok then.

 

I’m not really even talking about tap room beers so much as packaged RTG beer from heb when it’s open. That’s a category that pinthouse can’t even compete in and zilker is hardly even present. And on that note, I’m pretty sure I’d take fire eagle over marco ipa on the reg. I’m an admitted abw homer. It’s fine and I accept that. I realize they’re not the best around and that’s cool too.

 

But hey, taste is all relative right. Let’s toast with the one you do like.

Pastry Beer Dorks flex on ABW

 

 

I don’t even know what this means but I’m pretty sure you just reached for my penis. How you doin?

I used to go in there once a month and try anything new/interesting/good they had. After several months with nothing to keep me interested, I stopped going. There are so many breweries in the area now. I know we have all heard the stats that some low % of beer sold is craft and overall sales are up year after year, plenty of room for growth. It’s all true and craft will continue to grow, but I think we are at the point that we see some closures and not just an endless stream of new openings.

Wife and I hit Zilker en route to the Alamo Bowl.  Very solid beer, and cool space.  If I was an Austinite it would definitely be in my regular rotation.

It’s has made it into my rotation for sure. 4th Tap, adelberts, and circle have been dropped. Sucks because they are much closer to home.

Is there a hands down worst Texas brewery since Texas Big Beer closed a few years ago? There a few in Houston like Bakfish and Platypus that are on the wrong side of mediocre.

I still don’t think I’ve come across anything as consistently bad as TBB.

Legal Draft in Arlington is pretty lame and I've had enough bad stuff from there that I won't touch anything else from them.

Is Strange Land still in business? If so, I'll go with them.

Had a Hopslam at lunch.  This beer has been “meh” for me for at least 5 years.  So glad I didn’t pull the trigger on a $20 6 pack yesterday.

Hopslam has evolved into the "McRib of IPAs". Used to be a solid beer back in the day
